Cultural Studies
Cultural Studies gives you the tools to critique and create cultural objects and practices – everything from games to graffiti, print to painting, and music to film. You’ll study culture by reading, talking, and doing, taking both lecture and workshop courses in literature, fine art, media, and theory. And you’ll ask (and seek answers to) the questions about how culture shapes our lives.

"What I enjoy most about the Cultural Studies program is the way that you can learn all of the theoretical stuff behind all these things that are all around us that you might not really know is happening, but you also get the hands on feel of workshops and learning how to use practical technology such as digital audio work stations, filing, video editing, camera work, all that kind of stuff."
